WTB Gretsch Creme de Marine Falcon

slider3637 · May 2019

Looking to trade if possible.
Got a couple of rare birds for you.
1. a Midnight Sapphire Penguin
2. a two-tone (smoke grey over violet) Country Club
if either of those appeals.
Cheshire based.
Thanks

Ah that was a gorgeous colour wasn’t it.

Sadly I don’t have one, good luck with the search!

The only person I know who has one of those is @Dominic ;

Not sure if he'd part with it though....

Dominic · May 2019

I do indeed have one.........coolest 1950's style colour ever.........took me 2 years to find !

brooom · May 2019

Great colour, especially with the gold hardware... but I'm sort of partial to this one:

Masterbuilt?

Yes, it's a Stephen Stern.

I’ve got a Steve Stern Annie. It’s got a fierce angry growl. Love it. Taking that one to the grave...!

brooom · May 2019

Yep, I love both my Stephen Sterns. They're great guitars. But I also bought a 59 vintage select duo-jet when they came out and they're also superb guitars. Would love have an Anniversary, but shouldn't really be buying anymore guitars.

Best of luck @slider3637 hope you find that Falcon.

PC1971 · May 2019

That colour is absolutely stunning! @brooom ;;
I recently discovered Mr Sterns world and I'm totally smitten. ;-)

White Falcon Junior of any interest to you @slider3637 ?

Thanks @Anchorboy but I’m after a specific Falcon. Appreciate the offer though. Cheers.

Now that’s a nice guitar

AlexO · May 2019

I'm really considering selling all my guitars to have a MB Gretsch made for me...

On a side note Mark @slider3637 Is a top bloke and great to deal with!

sorry to hi-jack, Ishibashi just had a 2012 Custom Shop Penguin in black on a blowout price of £2400 today. I was going to come and warn you guys but it sold within minutes. Even with shipping and customs that would be worth it.

Been trying to find some Creme De Marine in the Japonese market, that I could warn you about, but they don't come up easy.
